2 Safety
This operating manual contains fundamental
information which is to be observed during installation,
operation and maintenance.
It must be read before installation and commissioning!
For overflow valves which are used in potentially
explosive areas, see
Section 3 .
Installation, operation and maintenance are to be
performed by qualified staff.
The area of responsibility, authority and supervision of
the staff must be regulated by the customer.
General hazard symbol!
People may be put at risk.
Safety symbol! The ball valve and its
function may be put at risk if this safety
symbol is not observed.
It is imperative to observe warnings and signs
attached directly to the valve and they are to be kept
fully legible.
Non-observance of the notes on safety may result
in the loss of any and all claims for damages.
Non-observance may involve the following hazards :
♦ Failure of important functions of the valve/plant.
♦ Risk to people from electric, mechanical and
chemical effects.
♦ Risk to the environment through leaks of hazard-
ous substances.
2.1 Intended use
Richter safety valves of the series KSE/F and KSE-
C/F are pressure-maintaining components with safety
function in accordance with the Pressure Equipment
Directive (DGRL). They protect the pressure
equipment if the admissible pressure limit is
exceeded.
KSE/F and KSE-C/F are only intended for vertical
installation.
The valves are suitable for vapours, gases and non-
boiling liquids of group 1 in acc. with the Pressure
Equipment Directive (DGRL).
They have a corrosion-resistant plastic lining.
Safety valves are intended to prevent inadmissible
excessive pressures, e.g. in piping systems, pressure
vessel plants and boilers. Risks to people, the
environment and plants are thus avoided.
Solids can lead to increased wear, damage to sealing
surfaces or to a reduction in the service life of the
valve.
Safety valves have been set at the works to the
desired test pressure, tested and lead-sealed.
Exact operating conditions of the safety valve selected
are documented in the
data sheet . There you will find
the performance characteristics such as the certified
coefficient of discharge, flow area, set pressure,
opening pressure, reseating pressure and materials.
In case of the valve is intended for operating data
other than those intended, the customer must
carefully examine whether the design of the valve,
accessories and materials are suitable for the new
application. (Please consult the manufacturer).
2.2 For the customer / operator
If a safety valve is used, the operator must ensure that
♦ hot or cold valve parts are protected by the
customer against being touched
♦ the safety valve has been properly installed in the
pipe system
♦ the operating conditions stipulated in the data
sheet are not exceeded in continuous operating
mode.
This is not the manufacturer's responsibility.
Loads caused by earthquakes were not allowed for in
the design.
Fire protection to DIN EN ISO 10497 is not possible
(plastic lining and plastic components).
2.3 Improper operation
The operational safety of the valve supplied is only
guaranteed if it is used properly in accordance with
Section 2.1 of this operating manual.
The operation limits specified on the name
plate and in the pressure-temperature
diagram must under no circumstances be
exceeded.
See also improper operation and their consequences
in
Section 7.4 .
